Then we should compare ourselves to the playoff teams that keep showing us the door. Have we closed the gap between us and KC by cutting Mitch Morse and moving McGovern to center and making Rapp a starting safety? No. Obviously not.

Improving boundary WR was a no-brainer 2 years ago. Now it's a 5 alarm fire.

I am not really sure why folks care so much about trying to pretend the Bills are a better football. We still have Josh. It doesn't really matter. How Bills fans, that suffered through the drought and Brady kicking our teeth in every year, have somehow forgotten that a great QB matters infinitely more than the talent level of the other 52 spots is one of life's biggest mysteries.

It is true. We are talking about gameday management. McD doesn't have a "Ed Oliver, beat your man" playcall. He puts Ed on the field. If Ed wins or loses his matchup, it's 100% on Ed.

I find it very funny when folks say things like this, when there's a mountain of evidence that suggest otherwise. Samuel IMO is an upgrade over trash like Harty and Trent. Harty was an overpaid gadget KR guy, and Trent was trash making 800k a year as a vet minumum. In the last 4 seasons, including the year he barely played, he outproduced both of their entire careers COMBINED. He can and likely will far outproduce their meager contributions. Asking him to replace both of them and Gabe IMO is a mistake. They need a rookie WR on the boundary. Diggs + rookie + Shakir + Samuel has a chance to be a much better unit than Diggs + Gabe _ Harty + Sherfield.

Agreed. Which is why I think there's a decent chance MHJ outproduces them.

Improved relative to the league? No.

The other receivers we have picked up have been bottom of the barrel trash. That’s the real problem.

I won’t sit idly by while they do our boy dirty like they did with Cam.

I will accept a trade back or a WR in the first. Otherwise, I’m putting up the Fire Beane billboard.

Very much doubtedly, tbh.

I have the same fear, but I keep telling myself that Beane not touching a restructure on Stef means that he knows his days are numbered. I’m still preparing myself for the onslaught of “we didn’t need a highly drafted WR, we signed Curtis Samuel” posts after the the draft.

John Brown. Cole Beasley.

the Bills? Yeah they had a pretty good OL.

If Diggs in 2024 is the guy in the last 8 weeks and not the first ten, he is easily replaceable by a rookie. That was my point.

We shall see!

And none of them individually have the chance to outproduce MHJ. Which is the whole point lol

Okay, so if MHJ has close to the same amount of yardage as those three next year (say within ~100-200 yards), will you change your mind?

I don't think Cook, Shakir and Kincaid will get to 16000 yards. So I don't think MHJ will have to beat 16000 yards. It's a pretty logical argument to follow.

Fundamentally disagree. You use the first two rounds to get players that you would hand out gigantic money to in a second if they were ProBowlers. QB, DE, WR, OT, CB in that order. Because those are the most important positions. Do you know why the Cowboys felt comfortable letting Tyron Smith get $20M elsewhere? Because they had drafted his replacement who will play for a fraction of that a year earlier in the first round. What if one of these garbage teams offer Brown a reset the market RT contract next season? We can't and shouldn't pay that. What if Dawkins play completely deteriorates over the next two seasons? Then you are left chasing an important position after the fact and reaching for a day 3 OT prospect in day 2 because we need to "fill the hole." Its bad management.

yeah they got ran over. The whole defense really sucked. Would've been nice to have been in a shootout. Here's Jackson Carman absolutely posterizing Edmunds. I used to have this in gif form.

His big brother Dalvin once had 500 yards receiving in a season. His career is now over, at 1800 yards receiving. Sorry but I think there's a next to zero percent chance James hits 3k receiving. We shall circle back in 5 years and see, if I'm still alive. Also, jut FYI, you're putting Kincaid in the near-HoF with that track. 7000 yards by a TE would be 13th all time.

Any snap he plays is too much. It is funny how that game gets remembered. It was a really bad start by the defense. but they allowed only 13 points the rest of the way. Of course, Dorsey-ball dictated we would only score 3 points from the second Q on.

Tbh, this was the game i gave up on Edmunds. I watched him get pancaked out of the stadium on third and 1 by Jackson Carman after watching Hayden Hurst eat all afternoon in the middle of the field, and I had finally realized the scarecrow sucked.

Jackson Carman vs Eli Ankou, I take Carman all day.
